Osogbo has ritualists on the prowl. How you going to convince an elderly German couple that Osogbo is worth visiting?

Taraba is beautiful and the least dense state in Nigetia. Southern Adamawa as well. Gombe has a lot if hills but nobody is ever going to venture there with bokos breathing down their necks.

The southwest has nothing to offer. So also the southeast. The Niger Delta has been destroyed but I remember how beautiful the mangrove wetlands were during sunset.

I agree with you, that axis has the most natural habitat in Nigeria, unfortunately Bokoharam has decided to destroy the area. You should also add bauchi to the list.

Go there at your own risk.

Bauchi is a hotbed for Islamic fundamentalists.

Most of the old and new recruits in Boko Haram come from that state.

As at 2000 it was in a decent condition, but since the rampage from Bokoharam, i doubt if the reserve is still what it used to be. I wouldn't be surprised if they are in the trade of elephant trunks.

Am not in support of what the other guy said. But we must be careful of the kind of jokes we crack. For goodness sake, how can you make jest with the President and his wife, even referring to the wife as Sheppo. haba!!! that is someone's mother. let's learn respect pls

That animal constitutes a real nuisance.
I lived close to river Niger between Kwara and Niger state during NYSC, I know the kind of problems hippos cause for fishermen and boat transporters, they were responsible for a lot of boat mishaps.
So the reason for killing it might not be for its meat alone.
In a normal society authority would have been called if the animals are disturbing, and the animal(s) would have been safely moved to the reserves! But here, because of our greed, everything is meat

Did you take them in Nigeria?

If yes, it may be worthwhile to create a thread for them and indicate the location where the wildlife animal was spotted.
Cheers.

Sadly no

It was at Kruger national park SA.

Just trying to show the great potentials of wild life tourism.

We should not be killing off our wild life indiscriminately.

Below is a water buck.

Used to be plentiful at Yankari, do not know about now
